Cookie Policy

In the computer world, a cookie is a small text file that is sent from a website to your computer. This file is then readable by the website the next time you visit. Cookies do not contain any personal identification data.

Make your shopping experience on our website quick and easy

Here are the third party cookies we use:

1. Google Analytics

Google Analytics tells us how many people come to the site, what they read, and how long they stay, among other things. Data is anonymous, so we don’t know that “Mary from Rockville visited for 30 minutes and read about House Training and Biting.” We use the data to see which parts of our site are most valuable to our readers and which parts could be better featured. Please see Google’s privacy policy for more information.

2. WooCommerce

The Your Dog’s Friend shopping cart is powered by WooCommerce. If your browser has locked out cookies, you will not be able to check out. The WooCommerce cookie is a very friendly one! All it does is remember what you’ve put in your cart. Without the cookie, the cart will “forget” what’s inside it and you’ll get an error when you try to go to Paypal to pay.

Government Employees / Contractors

If you’re using a computer that belongs to the federal government, there is a good chance that your IT department has locked it down so you can’t do much online. If you see an option to accept a cookie from Your Dog’s Friend or WooCommerce and can click Yes, do it. But likely you will have to wait until you get home on your personal computer to purchase a class.
